I just picked up a used Delta 6" jointer in pretty good shape. The motor was wired for 220V and I need to switch it to 115V. The schematic is shown in the picture. Can someone translate it for me? I'm pretty electrically challenged and can not figure out what's what in the diagram. Thanks! jg

number 1-3-5 go together to hot and 2-4-6 go together to neutral for 110

In this case, it doesn't matter which is connected to hot and which to neutral. The 1-3-5 terminals are connected to one of the 120V wires (black or white), and the 2-4-6 terminals are connected to the the other one (white or black).

Thanks a million guys! You may want to watch the national news tonight and see if there was a electrical brown out in the Houston area!
I'm pretty sure I can get this now...thanks again! jim
